this is not an obama comment. this is a congress plus obama comment. the pentagon needs a thorough overhaul. i helped found the military reform caucus in '81, i'm a hawk but i'm a cheap hawk. cut the f-35 overrun program. it is obscene and disgraceful and people should be demanding we fix the system. one other example, one other example, we just learned that one of the great solar powered green energy projects was $140 million for a company in michigan which has produced zero products, zero for $140 million. why shouldn't the american people say cut out the waste? >> congressman? >> and, jonathan, the fact the president and democrats believe that we can make cuts and that we can reduce the debt but it's got to be balanced. so i think we all agree on where we need to end up. it's a matter of how you get there and just to counter a little bit about what george said, the fact is this was never the president's idea, this was the result of hostage politics engaged in by a tea party-controlled republican party, and this is what you have. this is the message
